2nd and 3rd stages of this Turn Spain 2011 were to be prerogative of the sprinters. First returned to Sutton outsider. The second presents a collar of third category, viola of Santa, with less than 15 kilometers of the line. A difficulty far to be insurmountable ordinary. But with the tiredness accumulated throughout year and the suffocating heat which currently reigns in Spain, the organizations make be put at severely tested.

For proof, variations were already observed yesterday where some leaders (Wiggins, Mével, Moncoutié) lost a few tens of seconds on the others cadors. For Andreas Kloden (1' 18' ') or the young French Alexandre Geniez (6' 44' '), the signs are more alarming. This bump " mal" placed could thus oppose the plans of HTC-Highroad which have, moreover, lost the services of Matthew Goss. Young German John Degenkolb, 10th Sunday, could thus be privileged in Cavendish for massive sprint. With less certain Sutton puts once again everyone agreement.
